Judge rejects Google Apple 324.5 million dollar poach settlement agreement

Silicon Valley's four big technology giants, including Apple, Google, Intel and Adobe, failed to persuade U.S. judges to agree to their 324.5 million dollar class-action settlement agreement. Many of these companies have been accused by skilled workers of conspiring to avoid "poaching" each other's employees.

In a ruling published in Friday, the San Jose District Court judge in California, Calif., said the settlement agreement made by 4 companies was too low, compared to allegations against them. The judge said there was "compelling material evidence" to prove that the late Apple founder Steve Jobs was the central figure in the alleged conspiracy.

The class-action case began in 2011, when several technical workers said the companies conspired to limit the liquidity of their jobs, resulting in a clampdown on their pay growth. The case is closely watched, as four companies could be awarded huge sums of compensation, as well as the opportunity to glimpse some of the secrets of top U.S. technology companies.
